I saw it at SDCC, and it's very much a Thunderbirds clone in terms of story.

So there may be no actual "villains" initially.

Bandai did say that there would be more stories and not just rescue stuff later.

They seemed a bit dismayed that I pointed out the TB homage right off, as they were pushing it as "100% Orignal" Bandai Creation!

But seriously, there's a big green carrier ship (like TB2) that has numbered pods that hold the rescue vehicles.

And there's another obvious Gerry Anderson homage. I forgot what it was, but the DICE guys use an Acronym sign off a la "S.I.G." from Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons.

Still, all in all an okay show and a great toyline (a buddy snagged me a few before x-mas.)
